Anyone know what the situation with Makoun is?

Last I heard he was back at Villa receiving treatment following an injury. My question is how long is he going to be out and when he gets back to full fitness will he be going back to resume his loan spell in Greece?

[Matt C]

Out for the season isn't he?

[Shrek]

It's a shame because he is the player we should be playing.

We should be looking to emulate what Swansea have done.

[brian green]

I could not agree more Shrek.

[PaulWinch again]

He'd be ideal for a passing style.

[Risso]

I don't think Makoun would get into the Swansea team.

[eamonn]

Neither would most of our current players.

[Grande Pablo]

I don't think Makoun would get into the Swansea team.

There was nothing he showed us last year that would even justify that. 

If I recall all the rumours were about Sessignon, yet we ended up with Makoun.  Good deal, Gerard.

[Shrek]

I don't think Makoun would get into the Swansea team.

No but he would get into ours if we had their philosophy.

He would have bought Cabaye in the summer.

and to be fair , Sessignon has taken a while to settle .     r.e Makoun , players do need time to settle .

It was a really bad day at the office for us against Swansea. But I'd take us to beat Swansea more often than not if we played them every week. Let's not make that Swansea team out to be that much better than they are. Yes, they are an attractive team to watch and both Rodgers and Martinez have bought players over the years that are technicially sound and play well together. But it was their first away win of the season. If they were that good they would have won more. They caught us on an off night and we made them look a lot better than they are.

And we've seen this movie before. Be it Burnley, Hull, Blackpool etc, there are always teams that come in do really well in their first season. Hull went to the Emirates and won if everyone recalls. They are now playing Championship football after their bubble got popped.

The game the other night was utterly shit. But let's not get too carried away with what happened.

[Shrek]

Swansea are one of the best passing teams I've seen down Villa park, add to that one of the tightest defences.

I just wish we still had Houllier in charge, he had a vision and a plan.

[TopDeck113]

So am I right in assuming that when it comes to loan players, we're paying for both Makoun and Jenas to be on the treatment table at Bodymoor Heath?

[garyshawsknee]

Don't wanna turn this thread into a Swansea love in,but they've only lost one at home,letting in three or four,I've now lost count of our home defeats.
